"It's A Long Way To The Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n Roll)" lyrics

Hey, ridin' down the highway
Goin' to a show
Stoppin' on the byways
Playin' rock 'n' roll

Gettin' robbed, gettin' stoned
Gettin' beat up, broken boned
Getting mad, getting took
I tell you folks, it's harder than it looks

It's a long way to the top, if you want to rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top, if you want to rock 'n' roll
Think it's easy doing one night stands?
Try playing in a rock-roll band
It's a long way to the top, if you want to rock 'n' roll

Hotel, motel
Make you want to cry
Lady, do the hard sell
Know the reason why?

Gettin' old, gettin' gray
Gettin' ripped off, underpaid
Gettin' sold, second-hand
That's how it goes, playin' in a band

And it's a long way to the top, if you want to rock 'n' roll
Yeah, it's a long way to the top, if you want to rock 'n' roll
(Want to rock 'n' roll)
If you wanna be a star on stage and screen
Look out, it's rough and mean
It's a long way to the top, if you want to rock 'n' roll
Yeah

If you want to rock 'n' roll

Hotel, motel
Make you want to cry
Lady, do the hard sell
Know the reason why?

Gettin' old, gettin' gray
Gettin' ripped off, underpaid
Gettin' sold, second-hand
That's how it goes, playin' in a band

It's a long way to the top, if you want to rock 'n' roll
Oh yeah, it's a long way to the top, if you want to rock 'n' roll
(Want to rock 'n' roll)
I said, it's a long way to the top, if you want to rock 'n' roll
(Want to rock 'n' roll)
It's a long way, but hey, let's go rock 'n' roll
Let's go
